Hi,
If you go into that skim reading dialog box and hit "begin skim reading" or whatever that button says, will the skim reading happen only in that document or e-mail, then revert to normal reading?
I've never used this feature before.
Thanks.

Hello all,
Anyone having problems with the skim reading feature in JAWS 11.0.756?
Here's how I can duplicate the problem:
1. Open a document, such as an e-mail message.
2. Press JAWS key+shift+ctrl+down arrow to open the Skim Reading
dialogue
box.
3. Select the desired settings, and press enter to click the create
summary
button.
4. Absolutely nothing happens.
This is with JAWS 11.0.756. If I use JAWS 10, Skim Reading works as
expected.
Just thought I'd ask out here before maybe reporting it to my dealer in
the
UK.
